Re: Linux: steps to program fullsize RC robot
The point of this thread is to show steps to bypass the MPLAB Ide allowing you to use any IDE or editor you want, anjuta, vim, or kate for example and be able to compile code and load it to the pic in Linux. MPLAB is limited, need I say more? MPLAB requires internet explorer 5....what for? If you want MPLAB to use the simulator, you should be able to wine the simulator dll mpsim.dll.

Once your done with these steps, you can edit the source files user_routines.c in any editor you would like, then type make in console and then picloader FrcCode.hex <device>, and you would have programmed the PIC with the same functionality as in Windows, with MPLAB etc...
